Review of WataMote: No Matter How I Look At It, It's You Guys' Fault I'm Not Popular! OVA

Watamote is a fairly decent anime, but the OVA is not - it feels a bit thematically contradictory to what actually takes place in the show; Tomoko doesn't deserve to be rewarded with the gift of an implicated destined meetup with a boy just like her, because the whole point is that Tomoko is a terrible person whose incapable of escaping from her world view that's formed from a malicious congealing of her spiteful loneliness and addiction to unrealistic romantic material, fueling her envious perception of the world, where every other woman is a "slut". Episode 12 might have been a miserable ending to the series,but it thematically fit, especially as a warning about the dangers of Tomoko's type of lifestyle and thought processes, which ultimately alienate her from everybody that could possibly help her as she literally runs away from those that want to help her or like her.

It would have made more sense to have the OVA involve Tomoko changing her mindset, even just a little bit; enough to show that she's on the path to a better future.
